Buddha shaped candles banned
The South Wales Argus quoted Lama Shé-zér as a local Buddhist authority in an article on a controversy over Buddha-shaped candles.
Quote:
Shezer Khandro, an ordained practitioner from Caldicot, said although she did not make a complaint about the candles, she understands why they could cause offence.
“It would not be something I would have in my house,” she said. "I revere the Buddha as an enlightened being.
“I can see why people would find it offensive. I wouldn’t chose to burn the Buddha.”
